Today we’ve created a mixed media jewellery/make up/keepsake box
for you’ll! We’ve given it a vintage look! This is something everyone
girl/woman would want!

Since this is a mixed media creation, it has various layers with
different products. To begin with we, brushed the box with white gesso and
adhered some die cuts with mod lodge! This forms our first layer of texture.
Once dry, we used a stencil and added texture with modelling paste. We then
covered our box with black gesso. Since we wanted a vintage look, black base
was a good idea! We left it to dry.

Next, we decided to add more texture. By now you would’ve
realised that mixed media is all about textures! Here we used a stencil with
white crackle paste! This added the dimension we were looking for. Once
everything was dry and we were happy with our result,we added colours using Lindy’s Stamp Gang
sprays.

For our focal elements, we hand made roses using the Heartfelt
Creations Classic rose stamp and die set. We coloured them using the same
sprays and shaped them. We arranged our elements and added a few tags and die
cuts to match our theme! We used some lace on the rim and we had this gorgeous
vintage memory keepsake box read.
